I absolutely hate the word Chicken Fried Chicken I can never, ever say this word out loud, particularly when ordering at restaurants. I find that I can whisper it and even kind of say it to myself, but as soon as it's time to order, I can't say it. I hate it. Yesterday I tried ordering some but couldn't and just switched to Chicken Fried Steak, which sucked. I don't understand how I can say CFS but not CFC. Anyway, does anyone else have certain words you just can't say at all? What are they and how do you deal with them? Cheers.
